Porn Valley- [Switched.com] Tory Lane [pictured] was the first adult entertainment actress we encountered.

Lane, who acts and directs for Sin City Entertainment and stars in such films as ‘Nurse This’ and ‘First Person Shooter,’ began her entertainment career dancing ballet at the age of six. Her first taste of adult-themed work began with participation in an amateur contest at a strip club – the rest was history. She has since been in over 120 adult features. Lane was kind enough to hold nothing back as she talked to us about her sex life and her favorite gadgets. We share her answers with you below.

What gadgets do you always bring with you to the set for downtime?

Downtime? I bring my little Nintendo … my little [Sony] PSP. I bring my iPod, I bring a lot of technology, plus my vibrator. My favorite vibrator is the massager, the Magic Wand!

What cell phone do you have right now and what do you love/hate about it?

I have the Trio for my texting, and then I have a regular RAZR for my calls. I hate them both because they think they’re smarter than me, and I refuse to read their books. So unless I’m stuck, then I’ll look through the manual.

Are you thinking of getting an iPhone?

I do want an iPhone, though, but I’m so rough. The touch screen?! Just like the Treo gets to me, I end up breaking them. I’ve been through like four Trios. I’m too rough with the touch screen. It’s too sensitive for me…

So, do you think Angelina Jolie…

Angelina Jolie, is she even around anymore? God, I’ve known her for years! Absolutely, dude. She lives in New York. I’m from New York.

Who’s the last person you sent a text message to and what was it about?

The last text message I sent was to my makeup artist, saying, “Where the f@#$ are you at?! It’s sounds like rough s%$*, right? Either they love me or they’re scared of me.

What site or service do you use every time you go online?

It’s usually MapQuest because I’m a woman and I have no sense of direction. I Google myself a lot.

What site gives you the best coverage?

My f%$@#$ Web site, www.torylane.com, kid!

Name one thing you wish your iPod, cell phone or laptop did that that it doesn’t do right now.

I’m with Mac… Like I said about cell phones, my laptop thinks it’s smarter than me. I’m like, “I don’t know it. What’s wrong?” My boyfriend is like, “Turn it on, Bimbo!”… Otherwise, I just wish it could get me off.

Say you’re stranded on a desert island, what gadget do you bring with you?

That machine that freezes… What’s that alcohol that tastes like licorice? Jager! The gadget that I would bring is a Jager cooler.

Do you play video games?

Yes, I do. But I stopped at Sega’s ‘Sonic the Hedgehog’. That’s as far as I got.

You mentioned that you have a Mac. Why did you choose Mac?

Because I’m stupid and it’s self-explanatory. And I’m a director and it has iPhoto and it’s good for Photoshop. And besides, I bang the co-CEO of Mac, so Daddy pays the allowance.

We next ran into Carly Parker, an up-and-coming star in the adult film world who took a break from signing fan memorabilia to speak with us. She got started in the industry two years after enrolling at Florida State University in 2002, turning to adult entertainment in 2004. On top of her busy schedule, she still managed to graduate from school in 2006. She has been featured in films such as ‘Tera Goes Solo’ and ‘Ferocious!’

What gadgets do you always bring with you to the set for downtime?

I’m really not very technological, I guess is the right word. My cell phone, I’m addicted to my cell phone. That’s pretty much the main. Four cameras and two iPods I lost last year. I lose everything. So, I keep it to a minimum now.

What is the most important gadget you have?

My cellphone!

Who is the last person you sent a text message to and what was it about?

The last person I sent a text message to was to my friend Evan and I texted him, saying, “I tried to call you.” He had called me, but I had to hang up. I called him back, he didn’t pick up, so I texted him.

What site or service do you use pretty much every time you go online?

My Facebook [site] is a big one. Yeah, I love my Facebook. It’s definitely one of the biggest.

Name one thing you wish your iPod, laptop or cell phone did that it doesn’t do now.

I wish that it was just easier to use, like more user friendly. I wish that I could anything, not my cell phone, and make them easier to understand. For people that are not technologically inclined, like myself… like a lot of my friends don’t use the gadgets because they’re too confusing. Just to make them not so scary.

Is there a gadget that is the easiest to use? Hardest?

My cellphone [is the easiest]. The hardest would be my computer. I’m having problems with… what’s it called? Spyware! I’m having problems with Spyware.

What kind of computer do you have?

A Sony Vaio.

You’re stranded on a desert island and you can only bring one gadget. What do you bring?

My cell phone! That’s going to be my answer to everything. I’m addicted to my phone. I sleep with it under my pillow. I love to talk and text. I love it.

What’s the most played song or artist on your iPod?

Mariah Carey. I don’t have a iPod now because I lost it. But I have satellite radio in my car.

Which company do you use for satellite service?

I have Sirius, which I love. Mercedes picked it for me.

Blackberry, Sidekick or Trio?

I honestly don’t know. I’d say not the Sidekick because that bullet thing is annoying as f$#%. I don’t have one, but some of my friends do, and I was trying to answer one earlier. It was so annoying! So one of the other two.

Are you going to get an iPhone?

Yes, I am going to get one. I was waiting for the second generation. The first generations are never good, so I was waiting for the second generation.

Did you ever play video games?

I play video games, but I’ve had a lot of relationships broken up over video games.

What is the game that broke up the most relationships in your life?

I would say ‘Halo’ and ‘Guitar Hero’… and ‘Madden’. We had a big problem with that. It’s wasn’t as bad as the other two. I’ve had three boyfriends who we broke up with over videogames (sic). I had one boyfriend who was addicted to ‘Halo’ and we broke up over that. One over ‘Guitar Hero’ very recently. And one, well we didn’t break up, but there were a lot of fights over ‘Madden’.

Were your boyfriends all in the industry?

Oh no, I date civilians. Only dorks. I like dorks.

If you were an inventor, what gadget or technology would you invent?

I would say something that could organize and deal with everything. Like, you know how they have those things that do your receipts now and stuff? Well, something like that in Japan, something that does your finance, your entertainment, your communication.

Is there a particular vibrator you use?

The Magic Wand.

You’re the second person who has said that.

Who was the first?

Tory Lane.

She’s my best friend!

Tera Wray is a contract actress for Pleasure Productions who grew up in Kentucky. She balances acting in adult movies such as ‘Naughty Auditions’ and ‘Desperate Housewives Confessions’ with her love of music and video games. We took a moment to interview this garrulous twenty year old about her favorite band, what she did before adult movies and her addiction to gadgets.

What gadgets do you always bring with you to the set?

My PSP never leaves me. Of course, I have my two cell phones. I have a Palm Trio 680 and an AT&T 8525 PC Phone. It’s a lot.

Why the Trio?

I’ve had a Trio for probably five years now. I love the touch screen. I can’t even use a regular cell phone now because I’m like “uh, uh, [jabbing the air], I can’t make it work right.” I like all the capabilities it has. I like all the chat rooms as far as text messaging goes. I love being able to get on the internet and check my E-mail. My E-mail in my business is very, very important. I get so many of them a day, and being able to get it on my phone like that just makes it so much easier.

Are you planning on getting an iPhone?

My brother actually works for AT&T. At first, I wanted one. I wanted to be one of the first persons (sic) to have it. I was actually somewhere else in the country for a store signing, so I couldn’t actually go stand in line with the rest of the fools out there. But I’m kind of glad I didn’t now because my fingernails get in my way. And it’s not exactly a fingernail-responsive touch pad like the 8525 or the Trio is. You have to actually use your fingertip. It was so hard for me to actually type. It’s just not what I was used to. So I’m happier with the two phones that I have.

Who was the last person you sent a text message to and what was it about?

It was to Wayne Static and I was asking him when I get to put his [blank] in my [blank].

What site or service do you go pretty much every time you get online?

Well, I go to AOL. That’s my homepage, AOL and Google Search. So it’s pretty cool. I go to Hotmail, because I have my email there. And I do my AOL Instant Messenger, which you can find me at Tera Wray.

Name one thing you wish your iPod/cell phone/laptop could do that it doesn’t do now.

Well, my laptop right now doesn’t have a camera. I’ve been looking for more. But I wish more that I didn’t have to type. I know they have voice recognition units too, but my accent just doesn’t work right for those sometimes. I mean, they totally misspell everything! I would like a better voice recognition program for my laptop.

What kind of laptop do you have?

What do I have right now? I go through so many. I was a computer tech for an insurance company for three years, so I have like three home computers, three laptops. So one that I’m carrying around right now is a Compaq, but I don’t even remember what f@#$% brand, what’s in it.

Do you remember what voice recognition software you have?

No, I don’t. I got all that stuff so long ago. I just don’t even care anymore. I just care about f#@$%*. But I still love technology.

Who is the best you’ve ever had in bed? Why?

Wayne Static is the best I’ve ever had because his c&*# is so big and he’s a rock star.

You’re stranded on a desert island: What gadget do you bring with you?

I would bring my PSP with mebecause I’m a big videogame freak. And you can also watch movies on it and listen to music, which I can’t live without.

And your favorite game?

Well, all the ‘Tony Hawks’ are always good. And all the ‘GTA’s are always good, too. ‘Grand Theft Auto,’ for all those people who don’t know.

What’s the longest time you’ve ever spent playing a video game in one sitting, and what was it?

Probably for like three days straight! It was probably ‘Grand Theft Auto: Vice City,’ when it first came out. It totally changed games, pretty much.

What is the most played song or artist on your iPod?

That would be Static-X and it would be every single song they have.

Mac or PC?

Both, do I have to pick one? I’m more familiar with the PC, I know more about it, but I’ve been playing with Macs lately. So, I like them both. It’s so hard.

If you were an inventor, what gadget or piece of technology would you invent?

I would invent something… Oh yeah, this is one thing I’ve always wanted. I was going to say something sexual, but this is something I’ve really, really want. I want to be able to think of a place I want to be, and just be there. You know, after you’re partying all night, you’re f#%^$ up and you’re ready to get home, just get laid or just lay down. Who cares about sex when you’re so tired? I mean, I always care, but … I want to be able to put this little helmet on and think, “I want to be in my bed right now,” and be there. That would be great.

The following adult film cherub we saw was Bobbi Starr, who was signing for the Evil Angel Web site. A San Francisco native, this temptress makes her living on film, but claims that she never watches TV. ‘It Takes Two 3,’ ‘Belladonna’s Odd Jobs 3’ and ‘Deeper Eight’ are just three of the films that make up her body of work. She sat down with us to confess about her gaming addiction and the gadgets she cannot live without.

What gadget do you always bring with you to the set for down time?

I always have my iPod. But you know, the non-gadget accompaniment to my iPod is a good book.

What cell phone do you have right now and what do you love/hate about it?

I have the Sony Ericcson Walkman phone, and I love the fact that it is really durable. I think I’ve dropped it a number of times and it still works great.

Who is the last person you sent a message to and what was it about?

It was to my boyfriend this morning and it was about my outfit, because he helped me pick out my dress. I told him I think it looks really cute.

What site or service do you use pretty much every time you go online?

I check my e-mail. I have a Gmail account, so I’m always there. I also go to Facebook.

What annoys you the most about your iPod/cell phone/laptop?

I guess [when] the batteries run out. I use my iPod constantly and I forget to charge it at night. My cell phone I’m pretty good with.

What upcoming gadget can you not wait to get your hands on?

I really like the iPhone, but I haven’t quite decided. Maybe “can’t wait to get my hands on it” is the right phrase, but I’m definitely intrigued by it. You can do everything on it. It’s nice looking and sleek, but it’s so big! I would like it to be smaller.

If you were an inventor what gadget or technology would you invent?

I guess a smaller iPhone.

What’s the most played song or artist on your iPod.

Maybe Tool, a lot of rock. I love rock music. But I’ll pretty much listen to anything. There are probably like ten different artists. I listen to different genres and such.

Do you play video games?

I do play video games. I’ve been known to play ‘World of Warcraft’.

What’s the longest you’ve ever spent playing WoW in one sitting?

Ever, ever? I actually haven’t played this generation of ‘Warcraft’ that much, but the previous generation I played definitely several hours, I’m a little embarrassed to admit.

Mac or PC?

I have a Mac. I have a degree in music and all the music software is originally written for Macs, and it just works better on Macs than a PC.

What kind of vibrator do you prefer?

The Hitachi Magic Wand.

If you could sleep with anyone in the world, who would you sleep with?

Rocco Siffredi.

Nikki Kane, our next star, is a contract girl for Ninn Worx Media, Inc. The blond-haired beauty is a self-proclaimed artist, car fanatic and blogger. She appears in ‘Kung Fu Nurses a Go Go’ and ‘Jail Bait 4.’ Kane was more than happy to let us into her world, a literary place where gizmos rule and technology reigns.

What gadgets do you always bring with you to the set for downtime?

My iPhone! It’s my world. I would die without my iPhone. My music and my Internet… I got Scrubs on there, check my MySpace, write my blogs. I got a blog called Another Superfluous Plethoric Blog, and I can write s$#% like that… And email and GPS and all that good stuff…

Who was the last person you sent a text message to and what was it about?

It was last night when I think I had a drink and I telling my friend to come see me in the booth today. I’m a text maniac. I don’t call people, I just text. I love text messaging.

What site or service do you go to every time you’re online?

I’m a MySpace addict, I have my own page. And I’m a blog addict. I’ve been in an uncontrollable literary inclination lately. Just writing the hell out of everything. I’m a huge blogger and MySpace bulletiner.

What annoys you the most about your iPod/laptop/cell phone?

My computer, I got an HP Pavilion and I had an HP before. It was XP and not Vista. It don’t know if that made the difference, but it may have. I dropped it and threw it numerous times when I would get pissed off. It worked fine until one day it overheated and it crashed. But this new one I got, it actually only dropped once and now it won’t burn CDs anymore. So that annoyed me. And my iPhone. I love it to death. But the touchscreen, the keyboard, is a major pain because I used to have a RAZR and I got so good I could feel the five when I was driving. I’d be driving down the road in my SL and would be able to feel out the buttons without looking at it. Now it’s a major pain in my rear end when I have to text in the car.

What’s the most played song or artist on your iPod?

Marylin Manson, the Dope Show.

You’re on a desert island: What gadget do you bring with you?

What are we even talking talking about? Blah, blah, blah. Probably not my laptop. My iPhone.

Name one thing you wish your iPod/laptop/cell phone could do that it doesn’t do now.

I wish the CD burner was still working… I wish my iTunes had my favorite movies. They don’t have Casino, the Godfather, Goodfellas. I’m Italian, la dolce vita. I’m Italian. And they don’t have Pulp Fiction either.

If you were an inventor, what would you invent?

I’m an artist, I’m not really an inventor. I draw, I write songs, that’s what my music is about.

What star that is here right now do you most want to be like?

I don’t want to be like them. I just want to be me.

What gadgets do you always bring with you to the set for downtime?

My cellphone, my Sidekick. I just got the Sidekick LX and I really like it. I know everyone is switching over to the iPhone, but I feel like I need to remain loyal to the Sidekick.

Who was the last person you sent a text and what was it about?

It was this morning. I have some friends coming into Vegas, and I sent them a text asking them, “When are you getting here?” And then they texted me back and I said, “When you get here, call this person.” I know, it’s not very exciting. I know you probably want to hear something dirty, but it was just a pretty mechanical text.

What site or service do you use everytime you go online?

My own website, which is burningangel.com, or joannanagel.com, or the backend systems of my website. But for fun MySpace. It’s probably consistently every time.

What annoys you most about your iPod/cell phone/laptop?

My cell phone is always running out of batteries at the wrong time, right when I need to make ten phone calls. So that’s annoying.

Name one thing you wish your iPod/cell phone/lap top could do that it doesn’t do now.

They still haven’t really come out with a phone where the internet is great. You can’t substitute a laptop.

You’re stranded on a desert island: What gadget do you bring?

My Sidekick.

What is the most played artist or song on your iPod?

Lately I’ve been listening to Tegan and Sara. And a lot of Mike Patten stuff.

Mac or PC? Why?

I just got a Mac. I love it. I’m really happy with it. It’s very user-friendly. It doesn’t get viruses. It’s fast. It’s easy. There’s just not a lot of bulls#$^ like there is with PCs. I just started using the Mac, so I’m kind of in love with it. I kind of never want to use a PC again. When I see other people with their PCs f%$^#& up, I feel so bad for them. I’m like, “I was there man, I was there.”

I have the iPhone and I love it because I get the maps, directions, phone numbers directory, iPod, iTunes, anything I want is there.

What gadgets do you always bring with you to the set for downtime?

For downtime, I have my iPod, my iPhone because I have sometimes different music on each one. Or I bring my PSP.

You’re stranded on a desert island: What do you bring?

I would bring my iPhone because it also plays movies and does music, so it’s the best of both worlds.

What annoys you most about your cell phone/iPod/laptop?

When they don’t work. When they malfunction and they shut down or freeze. That drives me nuts.

If you were an inventor, what gadget would you invent?

A music dildo.

Well, who knows what a music dildo is, but we’re sure it could change the world. That wraps up the Switched Questionnaire: Porn Edition, and we hoped you got a kick out of the stars’ candid responses. And for those of you who have been patiently waiting for the gallery, wait no more!
